“ I first attended BIGSOUND in 2006 and again this year. On Both occasions I was impressed by the International potential, quality, and diversity of the live performances and by the interesting, and often compelling panels and speakers.
BIGSOUND has grown considerably over the past two years. Queensland is now set to become the major portal for newly emerging global music markets.
Sire band The Veronicas, who hail from Brisbane, are starting to break big in the U.S. which will make my stay in Brisbane even more exciting and productive.” – Seymour Stein (Sire Records)

Pikelet

Pikelet began in Melbourne mid last decade as a solo project for Evelyn Morris, a onetime hardcore drummer who picked up an acoustic guitar, an accordion and a loop pedal, and never looked back.

Since then, Pikelet has released two albums, including this year's critic-conquering Stem, and grown into a four piece live band, which brings a cosmic edge to Evelyn's wide eyed style.

Pikelet has toured the world with the likes of Jens Lekman, Jeffrey Lewis and Bachelorette, while at home has been handpicked to support Sufjan Stevens, Dirty Projectors, Devendra Banhart and many more.
